[Zope-DB] Python, MySQLdb, and dates

[Kent Hoxsey]

Wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a problem I'm experiencing.

I'm using Python and MySQLdb to talk to a local MySQL database, but for
some reason any time I try to query dates the values come back as None.

My setup:
  - python 2.3.3
  - mysql 4.0.15a
  - MySQLdb 0.9.2

The really strange thing is that when I access the same tables from Zope
using the ZMySQLDA, the date values come through fine. Anybody have
an idea of what Zope is doing that I'm not?

TIA.
Kent
